From the Organizer

The Just One Step Memorial Walk is a new addition to our Wayland Hot Air Balloonfest. This will be a walk to remember those we lost too soon. We walk to let others know they are not alone and that suicide prevention is possible. The funds we raise will go to support those in our community that have experienced a loss or those who may need assistance getting the care they need. 

Your registration fee covers your ticket into the Wayland Balloonfest. There will also be a Recognition Rewards Program when certain fundraising goals are met! Details will be coming soon!
